Love is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
~Robert Heinlein ~
“I so want you to be happy!” Right, that’s why I have to make you unhappy first, so that when something better comes along, you will feel oh so happier then now! Can you see the logic? Because I can’t…Sorry, I just had to vent this one off my chest.
I’ve been falling into this trap again. In adequacy one. I’m an Ideal Wife. Wow. Now, that’s something, isn’t it? I do everything to make my husband feel good. That’s what I’ve been told. A perfect wife-material. Yet somehow this has nothing to do with being a woman. Men’s eyes designed in this defective way – they can see either one or another.
I don’t want to know of the anatomical differences between the visual sensors of men and women, I just want to know am I a woman or am I not?..At least I know I’m a person. I have strong beliefs; I have my logic and understanding of many things and understanding that I don’t understand many other things. I have some sense of art and some tastes for it. I’m different from others, which probably means I’ve done a good job growing as an individual. I’m comfortable in my skin as a person. It’s a woman’s part that confuses me…have I lost it? Or did I never have it? Why I can be a great friend but never – a great lover? Am I ugly? Am I unapproachable? Do I take and never give? Am I too simple for being an enigma women supposed to be?
If I’m missing this part of me, I want to know what exactly I am missing…I’d like to hear your comments about what do you think a woman is? Perhaps, one sentence that defines it for you, please?
